A skincare clinic in North Yorkshire is set to be converted into a residential property.
The Jill Kelly Skincare Clinic, located near the town centre and Scarborough Railway Station, can be converted into a three-bed house after plans were approved by the council.
The owner, who is approaching retirement age, has “owned the building for several years and has run a successful skincare business within it”.
According to submitted plans, the owner has been “winding the business down for several years, allowing previous employees to take some of her clientele” and is hoping to sell the building as a dwelling.
The Grade-II listed property, at 53 Falsgrave Road, is part of a group of terraced properties, constructed around 1830-1840 from red brick and with slate tiled roofs.
According to submitted plans, there will be no changes to the fabric of the building or its external appearance.
“The only change externally is to remove the signage from above the door and the small panel adjacent to the front door,” the applicant said.
Scarborough’s conservation officer raised no objections and said the proposal would “not result in structural alteration or loss of historic fabric and would not result in a detrimental impact to the designated heritage asset”.
According to the owner of the skincare clinic, the property is suitable for conversion and can “easily be adapted to a dwelling, as there is an existing kitchen and bathroom and the other rooms have no fixed furniture”.
North Yorkshire Council said the proposal was “acceptable and would not result in harm to the designated heritage asset”.
The application was approved subject to conditions.
